GREAT ADVANTAGE TO THE ENEMY
BAD WEATHER ON WEST FRONT
A MORASS OF MISERY
SUBMARINE CAMPAIGN TO BE INTENSIFIED
BRITAIN'S POLITICAL CRISIS
No announcement of the new BritisK Ministry will be made before Monday, to which day the House of Commons was to adjourn after yesterday's sitting. The leaders of the Liberals have decided to go into Opposition, but have promised their patriotic sixpport of all measures for carrying on the war. The fall of Bucharest caused no sensation in England. One effect of the capture is that it shortens the German line by three hundred miles. The Germans now control the Rumanian railway system. The Russian offensive in the Dobrudja has ended, and the troops are entrenching. Reliable news is not to 'be expected from Athens, as the cable is in the hands of the Royalists, and the press censors and the Allies' press correspondents have been threatened with violence. On the West front the conditions, owing to the weather, are very bad, and the men are having a bad time. In Macedonia the Servians continue active, but Mr. Ward Price points out that the Balkan front is more difficult than in any other theatre of war. It is announced that Germany will commence a ruthless submarine campaign with the coming of the new year.
